Abstract: Quantum computing has emerged as one of the most revolutionary paradigms in computer science and physics. It leverages the laws of quantum mechanics—superposition, entanglement, and interference—to process information in ways that classical computers cannot. This article explores the fundamental principles, hardware architectures, quantum algorithms, and the challenges faced in realizing scalable quantum systems. Additionally, it discusses real-world applications in cryptography, machine learning, materials science, and communication networks. The paper concludes with an outlook on how quantum computing is shaping the next technological revolution.

Keywords: Quantum Computing, Qubit, Superposition, Entanglement, Quantum Algorithms, Cryptography, Quantum Internet, Quantum Supremacy, Quantum Error Correction.
